How's the rain been treating you Norm? I imagine a fair amount of work from it.

For any of you climbers this is a amazing Lil saw once modded. I highly recommend trying one or just buy one and mod it out. Well worth the $ chews right through 10 inch mulberry, ash, elm no problem and very nimble

Hello band. Finally getting sun!

That`s great Norm, did the rain and wind provide any overtime?

Omg yes indeed! And then some

Finished off the rest of last years take down, needed a Weedeater to find it, fields are full and soil is still saturated.

I hope that extra work made you some extra money, I know you can use that.

Is that an 038 sticking out of that block of wood? I kept one 038Magnum for my collection.

Both nice saws, I have many of them and built dozens of them, tough as a tank!

big nasty rotten beech fallen over a footpath, people had been walking under this sucker for weeks! I was clearing a site nearby and it turns out the land the tree was on is owned by the same chap, so after a walker came down saying "theres a branch fallen over the footpath" we decided to go and have a look:


couldn't get machinery anywhere near and didn't have any big saws on site so one of the ms440's I ported thats my ugly duckling work saw had to put on her big girl pants and pull the 42" bar and chain. I'm happy to report that she performed far better than expected, aside from the obvious lack of oil output. not ideal but worked well in a pinch, I couldn't face going home and leaving it stood like that.

here she is before work started:

No port work. I pulled the muffler and and ground out the slot under the screen, bump the timing up 4 5 degrees and drilled the pin limiter pin on the high needle. Did a full trim on a big wide spread ash today, dead wood, thin, sucker, and building clearance, nothing bigger than 5 inch today. But it cut great ran great almost 5 tanks through it.
